Product Introduction
When a vibration channel drifts or a probe gets damaged during a turnaround, the fastest recovery path is a like-for-like replacement with the correct ordering code. The Bently Nevada 330103-00-05-10-02-00 is a 3300 XL 8 mm proximity probe built for that exact scenario. It mounts in an M10×1 threaded hole, uses a standard non-armored cable, and terminates with a ClickLoc connector for quick field connection to the extension cable and proximitor.
This probe delivers a 2 mm linear range at approximately 7.87 V/mm (200 mV/mil) sensitivity when used with a compatible 3300 XL proximitor such as the 330180. That means fewer calibration headaches and more consistent gap-voltage settings across maintenance cycles. For this specific -00-05-10-02-00 configuration, the unthreaded length and overall case length should be confirmed from the physical label before installation, since the “00” position can vary by ordering convention.

Key Selling Points & Differentiators
- Exact code match. This is the M10×1, non-armored, 1.0 m, ClickLoc, standard-cable variant—no guessing on thread or length.
- Drop-in 3300 XL compatibility. Works with standard 3300 XL extension cables and 330180-series proximitors without matched-component calibration.
- Proven measurement chain. 8 mm tip diameter, 2 mm linear range, and 200 mV/mil sensitivity make it suitable for radial vibration, axial displacement, and Keyphasor applications.
- Clean field termination. ClickLoc connector reduces installation time compared with bare-wire or compression-fitting probes.
- Clear boundary. Not recommended for high-temperature zones above 177°C at the probe lead or for oil-immersed connector locations unless FluidLoc or ETR variants are specified. This unit is standard cable, non-armored.
Quality Transparency SOP
- Part number verification. We confirm the label reads 330103-00-05-10-02-00 and matches the 3300 XL 8 mm probe family.
- Cable and connector inspection. The 1.0 m cable jacket, ClickLoc connector, and probe tip are checked for cracks, corrosion, or pin damage.
- Continuity and insulation check. Using a Fluke multimeter, we verify center conductor continuity and shield integrity from probe end to connector.
- Tip and thread inspection. The PPS tip face and M10×1 threads are inspected for scoring, deformation, or chemical damage.
- ESD-safe packing. The probe is coiled to the recommended bend radius, sealed in an anti-static bag, and foam-packed to prevent connector stress.
Technical Risk Avoidance
❗ Confirm total length before installation. Code “05” indicates 1.0 m total length. If the original probe was 5.0 m or 9.0 m, this unit will not reach the extension cable or proximitor without rework.
❗ Do not mix cable types blindly. This is a standard-cable ClickLoc variant (code 02). It should not be substituted for FluidLoc (code 1x) or armored (330104) variants in wet or mechanically exposed locations.
❗ Verify proximitor compatibility. The probe must be paired with a 3300 XL proximitor calibrated for AISI 4140 steel and the correct system length. Mismatched proximitor models can shift sensitivity and gap-voltage settings.
❗ Set gap voltage correctly. Typical mid-range gap voltage is around 9–10 Vdc, but the exact target depends on the proximitor and monitoring channel configuration. Always verify against the installed monitor setup.
Buyer’s FAQ
Is this a complete sensor system? No. This is the 8 mm probe only. A complete measurement channel also requires a compatible 3300 XL extension cable and 3300 XL proximitor.
Can I replace a 330103-00-05-05-02-00 with this? Not without checking length. The -05-10-02-00 is 1.0 m total length, while -05-05-02-00 is 0.5 m. Electrically they are similar, but mechanically the extra length may affect routing.
Does this include the extension cable and proximitor? No. Unless explicitly stated, this listing covers the probe only. Extension cable and proximitor are separate line items.
Is this genuine Bently Nevada? Yes. We sell genuine surplus inventory. The part number is verified against the physical label before dispatch. No clones or rebuilt substitutions.
What warranty applies? Standard 12-month warranty against DOA and functional defects. Mechanical damage from incorrect installation, gap setting, or chemical exposure is not covered.
